Thank you very much Catherine! That's a great idea; infact it's our current plan for the print archive. We're also going to archive the site so it's always available. Hah.

Please leave an archive with Croydon museum or croydon college? This is worth preserving as a record and a small HLF grant could cover the work. fb me if you need signposting for that. Ironic I know. Well done and goodnight all. Big Love. xx Desperately sad but you have been brilliant – thank you all for those 5 years. Please leave an archive with Croydon museum or croydon college?

But, at the same time, one feels positively moved by reflecting on everything people like yourself have achieved in the past few years. It may not be the ending you/we wanted, but what was achieved on the journey will never be forgotten; that's what really matters. Thank you for everything you and the Citizen team (including every contributor) have done in the name of this dirty office town! James, it really does feel quite sad to read this piece.

That's so kind - and you are right. If we lifted peole's spirits and showed them what a bit of community action can do, then that's a success. Thank you very much David.
